Slimta is a Python-based email server that offers a modular and scalable solution for delivering messages. In this tutorial, we'll explain how to install Slimta on a Fedora Server running the latest version.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Before installing any new software or package, it's important to update your system packages to the latest version. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo dnf update -y
This will update all installed packages on your system.
Slimta requires several dependencies to be installed before it can be installed. We can install them by running the following command:
sudo dnf install -y gcc epel-release python3-devel openssl-devel libffi-devel
This will install the necessary packages on your system.
Now that we have all the dependencies installed, we can proceed with installing Slimta. You can install Slimta by running the following command:
sudo pip3 install slimta
This will install Slimta on your system.
Once the installation is complete, you can test Slimta by running the following command:
slimta status
This will display the status of the Slimta server.
